The newly minted team RadioShack is now training in Tucson, Arizona.

More likely they are probably spending as much time getting to know each other as riding in the frigid weather.

Lance Armstrong recently told reporters that he's no longer the main guy on the team.

"I'm 38 now, I'll be 39 this season - it would be irresponsible to build it around me"

Here are a few more interesting Armstrong quotes from the team's first camp press conference:

- "Going into the Tour [de France] we have to look at Levi [Leipheimer], [Andreas] Klöden, the tactics, the ideas that we use."

- "If you look at the Tour this year, we had the strongest team in the race"

- "Of the nine riders from last year's Tour de France squad from Astana, eight are now on RadioShack. We took the vast majority of the riders from the team that we wanted, so it remains a strong team.

- "We lack that super high level favorite like Alberto, but I like the chances with the strong guys we have."

And check out the video below from the camps press day as the team riders get ready to meet the media for the first time.
